CAB(i)
13 And Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the leaders of the army, who were in the fields, came to Gedaliah at Mizpah,
14 and said to him, Do you indeed know that King Baalis son of Ammon has sent Ismael to you, to kill you? But Gedaliah did not believe them.
15 And Johanan said to Gedaliah secretly in Mizpah, I will go now and kill Ishmael, and let no man know it; lest he kill you, and all the Jews that are gathered to you be dispersed, and the remnant of Judah perish.
16 But Gedaliah said to Johanan, Do not do this thing, for you speak lies concerning Ishmael.
